.SH NAME
api_connect \- the connector part of the (modified) usbb2k_api USB telbox driver daemon
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B api_connect 
/tmp/usbb2k.sock 
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B api_connect
This part of the (modified)
.B usbb2k_api 
driver daemon does the actual connection to the socket which usbb2k_api creates so that the 
.B kb2kskype 
program can talk to the USB telbox. 

This usbb2k_api-suite is a modified version of the free driver for a USB telbox found at 
http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/usbb2k-api/

It has been modified slightly to enable the communication between 
.B skype 
and 
.B kb2kskype 
and the USB telbox even if skype is run as a normal user

This modified version is found at http://kb2kskype.sourceforge.net

If you want to manually talk to the telbox, have a look at the README file in the documentation directory for the exact steps and commands to issue.
